Damn dude, 38 dips is a lot. Are they all below parallel? I really want some dude to stand next to me every time I do dips and control my form etc, I did 34 once with a guy who acctually has competed in athletic fitness (dips, pull-ups etc) and he said I passed all of them. So in my head 34 is acctually my record

I kicked the shit out of my shoulders. Did low rep shoulder presses, then bent over lateral raises superseted with front raises. I did some side lateral raises, pretty many reps. Then I did a lying cable excersise for the read delts superseted with reversed pec dec and some rotator cuff work. My neck is killing me now but it's all good. Tomorrow is leg day

I always do dips using 2 chairs, placing one on the left and one on the right and grabbing the arms so I have a neutral grip. I also have to balance them so they don't collapse by pushing outward a little.I always tuck in my lower legs so my knees are lowest and go down till I touch the grass with my knees. That way I know my reps are pretty consistant. Just went and checked outside and it's actually a tad below parrallel, but I'd call it parallel.

I trained chest and triceps today. It went really nice. I did weighted dips, incline dumbbell bench, flat dumbbell bench, cable pushdowns and some cross-overs. And Phil, as a teaser. I used 25 kg extra weight when doing dips, but I'm not telling reps

Yeah weighted dips are awesome! Today I tranined back and did some weighted pull-ups, bent over rows in the smith, wide grip pulldowns and dumbbell rows. I finished it of with some curls but they didn't give me much at all. I also threw in some excersises for the calves.
